Immigration

The decision to send an employee overseas is not only a huge decision for a company but also for a migrant. Our specialised team have experience in all aspects of UK immigration and provide a bespoke service to make the journey as painless and seamless as possible.

With a charged political climate, UK immigration is becoming increasingly complex and should be at the forefront in the minds of every company in the UK. Whether you are considering expansion to the UK or operate in the UK, immigration will be an issue. In addition to the increased globalisation of trade, the transfer of employees of major multinationals into the UK and into Europe continues at pace, either to work for the multinational itself or as part of an outsourcing project. Brexit has also meant that we must review our workforce now to ensure that resourcing is not affected when Brexit bites.

We assist employers of all sizes with the requirements of the Sponsor Licence framework in order to ensure that you can recruit and retain the best talent regardless of nationality in addition to providing audits and advice on compliance on the prevention of illegal working. We also advise on Tier 1 Investor, Entrepreneur and Exceptional Talent applications in addition to Tier 5 Temporary Migration applications. We have particular expertise in applications outside the Points Based System such as the Sole Representative route and applications under the Family and European routes.

We work with the Department for International Trade both in the UK and its consulates overseas to help with potentially difficult applications. We pride ourselves in finding commercial solutions to urgent issues for new inward investors and for later stage companies.
